Spine-chilling ghost prank goes viral

It’s already past Halloween and a few more months before April Fools, but a Brazilian variety show’s scary ghost prank has turned into an instant hit.

When the elevator lights flickered and went off altogether, a creepy pale-faced girl came out from a trap door and stood beside the unsuspecting passengers. The victims got the scare of a lifetime when the lights returned and they found the girl standing next to them.

The child disappears then reappears as they switched the lights on and off. At times, the girl would scream at the scared victims.

Some victims covered their faces with their palms so as not to see the disheveled looking girl. Others cowered in the corner hoping for the worst, while most of the female victims screamed in terror.

The prank video is getting a good laugh from online viewers, although a few were raising concern that the acting girl could be attacked at anytime by the horrified passengers or a victim could die from heart attack.

“The whole time I was watching this video I couldn't help but feel that would be my first reaction- punch,” one viewer said.

If you were taking the same lift and a ghost child suddenly appears, what would you do?
